Photo Category on header of a category page

JoZ3_69

Is possible use the photo category like image top in a category page some like - http://vanillaforums.org/addon/categoryimageheader-plugin ?

probably depends on your version of vanilla (which is unknown to us) and what you want to do (which is still unclear).
display a mocked up screenshot

also etiquette wise to respond to questions you asked in other discussions.

You can also try the CategoryBg plugin which works on 2.0 and 2.1 but it helps to have more info about your setup and theme because some things differ and as a result our advice will differ depending on your specific version of vanilla....

@JoZ3_69: Or do you mean you want to see the category image on top of all threads of the defined category? That was the first i thought of.

Well, sometimes my english can be confusing, so I'll post a picture as suggested @peregrine‌ to explain what I want: a picture at the top of each category (image 1), but using the photo of the category option in the control panel (image 2). Someone like the plugin Category Image Header but using the category photos...

Vanilla version 2.1

actually a good idea.

I'll upload a new plugin that does what you want shortly.

for vanilla 2.1 - try this Category Image Header version 2.0 - it will use the images uploaded in your dashboard screen above.
